FYI
That was a very columbine looking dwarf honeysuckle there.

Last week we hosted Elfin Bedwe'er's playgroup and some of the moms decided to get all "back to the land" and started nibbling tall volunteers from the paths between the raised beds.

Later inb the day, I'm weeding and I get a "What's this? We ate some of it and we thought it tasted pretty good and we should put it in a salad mix."

Weeell, that is a shasta daisy. Right next to it is a foxglove. Don't be eating things you don't know anymore, 'cause I ain't gonna be a single dad nursing no toddler.
